The moon illusion is a phenomenon that is acknowledged to be real by the scientific community but there is still much debate about why exactly it happens.

But it is unlikely that you will be able to spot this difference with the naked eye.

When the Moon reaches perigee at the same time as a full Moon, we get a supermoon and the Moon appears larger in the sky. The next blue Moon will occur in August 2023, next year. This effect is amplified further when the Moon is on the horizon, like it is this month, thanks to the Moon illusion. However, because the lunar cycle takes a little under one calendar month, we sometimes get 13 full Moons in a year. Supermoons are categorised when the Moon is at 360,000km (or less) away from Earth in its orbital path, and we'll often see two or three full supermoons in a row. At its closest approach in this lunar cycle, the Moon will pass a mere 357,272km away from Earth.

The supermoon be visible for the next three days and people across the world would be able to see till Friday morning, according to Nasa.

Tonight, Wednesday July 13th, is a big night for earthlings: It's the arrival of a supermoon, a celestial spectacle that will be bigger and brighter than any other this year. and while things may be big then, they'll be at their biggest at 5am EDT, 4am CDT, and 2am PDT, in case you're mesmerized enough to stay up the entire night (and if not, then you might want to sport an eye mask before nodding off). At that specific time, in fact, the Moon should precisely be 221,994 miles (357,264 kilometres) away, according to the whiz kids at Space.com.

"I think that was a wonderful, unifying thing. It was a huge omen for them." The word lunacy itself comes from the Latin "luna", meaning moon. "For thousands of years, Chinese people have been using the lunar calendar in order to know when to plant and when to harvest." "In order to work out the rotational position of the Earth, it's important for us to try to work out where the shadow of the Moon fell at that time, because the Earth's rotation is actually variable," Dr George says. The lyrics are "Gedge Togia, Milpanuka", which translates to "Moon rising over home" in two languages, and describes "the Moon rising over home as Meriam people travelled from Mabuyag to Mer".

July's full moon is special. Not only is it a supermoon — which appears larger than a “regular” full moon — but it's the biggest and brightest one of 2022.
